After a fun-filled run of almost 2 months, our exhibit of The Celebration of Sapphire at The Arts Council of Fayetteville and Cumberland County closed the last week in October. The show hosted over 1,800 visitors. Of those, 186 participated in our Viewer’s Choice voting. These are the results….

In a three way tie for Third Place with seven votes apiece:

Second Place also saw a tie between two submissions with eight votes each:

Coming in with sixteen votes, we have our Winner:

In tallying the votes, we also took note of where all the souvenir postcards were headed. After attaching a wallet size photo of the chosen submission, each of the cards was mailed this week; recipients of these mementos are spread across 16 states and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico!

Our sincere gratitude to everyone who had a hand in the success of this undertaking: the artists world-wide who participated, The Arts Council for hosting the exhibit, and all of the visitors who came to see the show. We thank you all!

Watch this space! We’ve got some exciting news coming about something lovely late in 2027.

Until then, look for the joy & make cool things!
